You can always book yourself
in for a quick tour of Dial Glass Works (built in 1788). It helps if we know what you want to take away with you so
that we can have it in a neat parcel - we do gift wrapping and gift vouchers when requested .
We will
not be at the 2012 Stourbridge Annual Bead Fair at the Bonded Warehouse during the Biennale, instead we will stay at
the Dial.
Our Gallery will be full of wonderful art works created by our customers and those from Tudor Crystal.
Take advantage of the stock clearance offers which will be available in January ---- WHY?
Thieves
have ripped the lead off the roof for a second time - result - some days it looks as though we have Niagara Falls in
the warehouse and this plays havoc with cardboard boxes.
